It might be possible, but then there'd have to be lots of magic and
the result would be a different set of complaints ("sometimes I get a
black window, other times it just disappears"). Instead of trying to
detect and such, maybe there needs to be a standard recommendation for
an atexit or something - advise people to "stick this line at the top
of your program so the black window stays around". No magic, and
completely consistent.
